“It is common knowledge that 87% of the problems of the world are caused by cats. No cats, no problems."Hank the Cowdog”

“He had a good heart, he wanted to help with the cattle work, he thought he was Head of Ranch Security, but he wasn’t very smart and never understood why the cowboys were mad at him all the time.” (regarding the original Hank the Cowdog)”

“One riot, one cowdog.”

“Cats are greedy, whereas I merely want all the scraps.”

“Bravery and devotion to duty hath no greater reward than to see the cat get into trouble.”

“There’s no better way to mess up a good cowdog than to let him discover that goofing off beats the heck out of hard work.”

“Hank is a dog, not a human dressed up in a dog suit. Humans share some of his flaws, but I get my ideas from watching dogs.”
